Superficial Charm Poll

[astralsilky]

Superficial. Charming. "Ignorance is bliss." Well-dressed.

I'm thinking of the "Charro" type. Or Latoya Jackson.

SEE? SEI? What do you think?

SEE?

Um, the type that shouldn't be supervising me?

[diljs]

I would say SEE between those two, partly because I don't see SEI as (don't want them to be?) superficial.

[Mediator Kam]

What type of idiot could say ignorance is bliss? I only agree with it in very few cases.

As to the poll question I think SEE could be the most superficially charming type, though I see it all the time in an SLE i've been around in school.

When it comes to socionics, this idiot would say ignorance was bliss.

Thankyou. Idiocy loves company.

"If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention"

So you're trying to be contradictory?

there are few greater truths.

Sometime I'm taxed by the great weight of my profound knowledge and I wish it would all go away. It's very hard experiencing the world in a way that is as naturally omniscient as my perspective. If only I were ignorant and my god-like vision would rest for even the merest blink of an eye I could find peace.

Nick and Hitta know what I'm talking about.

"If you're not outraged, you're not paying attention"

Sure, there's plenty of stuff to get upset about, if that's what you're looking for. That doesn't sound like a very enjoyable way to live though.

This could be an ideological difference, but I want to change the status quo, at least in the way of universal justice.

For example, some people take the notion that we should get resources any way we can, by installing pro-American dictators in one century and handing out smallpox-infected blankets in another. I would say this is the "If it helps American interests, it's all good" tent. I would be in the other tent, the group that considers the social and moral consequences of these actions. Things like this have been occurring for hundreds of years, and I don't consider it right and/or fair to others.

I don't stand for injustice to other people if it can be helped, and it usually can be. I'd rather focus on the injustices in the world than burp and say all is good.

Some people will say that I don't know how the world works and that I am naive. I simply haven't accepted injustices as correct.

You're putting people in two black and white catergories, plus you're implying that people who don't support you are murderers. And you're drastically simplifying, disorting, and misrepresenting the issue.


You sound overly self righteous and judgemental. Not every single injustice in the world can be helped. People have unfair things happen to them all the time, and it's often not one person or group's fault, but a whole string of circumstances that lead to the issue and cannot be so easily corrected by somebody coming in and saying "I ahbor and will fight injustice blah blah". What good is that actually doing? Until you demonstrate that you are actually doing something about whatever problem, you do others a disservice by catergorizing them in such an ignorant manner.


I don't see how you can accept the world in such a dogmatic, black and white way, but whatever.

I believe it is because Kam is an ethical type, so he will make moral value judgments as he sees the need arise and respond compulsively. You are a logical type, so you will require a logical basis and refuse to accept an absolutist construct in the absence of absolute reason.

You're putting people in two black and white categories, plus you're implying that people who don't support you are murderers. And you're drastically simplifying, distorting, and misrepresenting the issue.

Fill me in. I'd love to hear you expound these issues. Unfortunately, you yourself are guilty of what you are accusing me of, by drastically simplifying, distorting, and misrepresenting the issue.

How much recent world history have you read Dolphin? And I'm not talking about Iraq or even Vietnam, I mean the trail of blood that we've been drawing ever since we've landed here. But that is not my point, to rail against indian murders and slavery. The native american issue is very muddled and technically we needed to expand ourselves. But this is an entirely different story.

America has been intervening in world affairs since the Monroe doctrine. We support democracy, yet Britain and us have installed dictators in Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Pakistan, and elsewhere. I don't think the Saudi nationals are too happy about this. We have held bloody coups in Grenada, Iran, Nicaragua, etc. Why do we do this Dolphin? Why? It's not just for fun, it's for the "gain" of American interests. And if people suffer, so be it. They're not American.

We should have no right to encroach on others personal rights, but we do, year after year. And we have become so attuned to it that we believe that we are installing democracy in these states, when history tells us otherwise.

People have unfair things happen to them all the time, and it's often not one person or group's fault, but a whole string of circumstances that lead to the issue.

I agree. 9/11 didn't come out of nowhere, and they don't just hate our freedom, it was our cavalier attitude towards their well-being that pissed them off so much. As I stated before, the killing of innocents is intolerable, be they American or others.

All in all Dolphin, there is a lot of background that needs to be covered before we can talk.

I believe it is because Kam is an ethical type, so he will make moral value judgments as he sees the need arise and respond compulsively. You are a logical type, so you will require a logical basis and refuse to accept an absolutist construct in the absence of logic.

My argument is not without logic, even though my compassion towards all humans might take a bit of ethics. But we are not all so gifted, as the record shows.

If you think that your being upset will improve things, then I suppose it is your imperative to do so.
